I saw this picture of a “Bonsai Tree,” and decided I needed to draw it in pen. I was going to color the picture in but when I did it seemed to loose some of it’s character. The colored picture is available to view on my Pinterest page.

Daily Timeout for Art #40
I love doing different things with my art. Today’s offering “Brown Sheep in Meadow,” is one of those experiments. I took simple picture of sheep, drew it in cartoon form then added a cut out for the wool. After I had my picture in place I took some watercolor pencils and lightly created a background then colored it in more with colored pencils.
While the picture is not one of my favorite creations I do like the finished product.
Daily Timeout for Art #39
Today’s challenge involved drawing something silver. I started out thinking about doing a still life of some silverware but to me it was just to static. I enjoy movement or color in the paintings I create so I moved on and did a doodle entitled “Silver Goblet and Pink Flower. My wife told me it looked more like a wine glass so when you look at it envision a goblet. Not the fancy kind but like the one you get out on a lazy Sunday afternoon to have a sip of wine.

Today’s daily timeout is a “Fishy Tale.” It is a pen and ink doodle colored in with marker and then enhanced using a digital art program. I hope you like today’s offering and as always all my art is available for sale and soon be found on a number of products on Zazzle and Redbubble.
Daily Timeout for Art #37
I went back to my roots for today’s art offering entitled “On The Way to School.” I used to love sitting down at my art desk and creating a landscape painting. I have done landscapes in pastels, acrylics, pen and ink and this one on colored pencils. I hope you enjoy this painting.
A Messy Studio = A Prolific Artist?
I am kind of embarrassed to put this picture out there but I am doing so for a good reason. In the picture you see and unfinished painting on the easel as well as one on the floor.
My art studio as you can see is anything but clean. The other part of my studio, which you can’t see looks worse. I find I am more productive when everything is lying about. I do make an effort to clean up my studio from time to time but find I do my best work among the clutter.
How about you, do work best when everything is nice and neat or does clutter equal inspiration?.

Today’s daily timeout for art is all about the b’s, no not the letter but the buzzing kind. This piece is entitled “White Flowers and a Bee.” The piece was created digitally.
Daily Timeout for Art #35
The 35th piece of art entitled “Flowers and an Orange” is a unique piece of art. the background for the still life was created using chalk shaved onto the surface of a pan of water. Then a piece of watercolor paper is held over the surface of the water and lightly padded creating the background. The rest of the painting is once again done digitally.
Daily Timeout for Art # 34
Today’s offering is lovingly entitled “Cat 22” not because it is my 22nd cat drawing but only because it sounded like a neat title for a picture. The picture was created entirely with the Art Studio app on an iPad.
